4.
Immediately after all the marbles are broken.
A quiet silence came into the hall.
“······.”
The test takers, the assistant supervisors, and even Direc and Deflin opened their mouths in a daze.
Only one. Except Ulan.
What he did was simple.
The spirit that is always active in the body is highly compressed and then released to the outside through the fist.
When this happens, the compressed spirit explodes instantly, creating a swirling wind and powerful shock wave.
This is a technique I used often in my past life.
Although the purpose was a little different from now.
‘Originally, it was made to eliminate swarms of insect monsters with one blow.’
Poisonous insects that swarm around small objects like flies and spray deadly poison. Ulan created it himself in order to eradicate them in one blow.
‘However, the power is less than before.’
If it were me in my past life, I would have completely destroyed even the wall that the marble was stuck to.
He quenched his appetite with regret, but his regret did not last long. Because it was a power I would get back anyway.
“Woah, Ulan…”
At that time, the voice of the assistant supervisor was heard.
In a very embarrassed voice, she stuttered and announced Ulan’s results.
“······Ulaanbaatar, 3 seconds.”
The venue became quiet once again.
Then.
A cheerful voice broke the silence.
“Wow, what did you just do?”
A girl with flowing apricot-colored hair.
It was Deflin. She looked at her Ulan with curious eyes.
“No matter how you look at it, it’s not magic?”
“······.”
What is this guy again?
I don’t think he’s a supervisor. As I was looking at Deflin, Noah’s advice suddenly came to mind.
If you ever get questioned, tell them to refuse. Just insist it’s magic.
Ulan put this into practice.
“It’s magic.”
“yes? But the magic response…”
“My magic is like this.”
Ulan, who insists so recklessly.
Deflin made an absurd expression.
But that only lasts for a moment. Covering her mouth, she laughed as if it was fun.
“Uhuhu, let’s say that. Even though the method is a bit unusual, the goal of the test was definitely achieved.”
After she finished speaking.
This time the other test takers were upset.
“Is it really okay to do that?”
“No matter how you look at it, it’s not magic?”
“But according to the rules…”
The test is to find and destroy marbles with different magical power as quickly as possible. Another condition is that no points will be deducted if you choose the wrong answer.
And Ulan broke all the beads without his body touching them. I don’t know if it’s magic, but I achieved my goal anyway.
Meanwhile, at that time.
Direc’s expression was completely crumpled.
His wide-open eyes were bloodshot, and his tightly clenched fists were shaking with intense anger.
‘You crazy barbarian!’
No, what on earth did you do?!
As Diphlin said, Ulan’s magic power did not respond at all. In other words, it’s ‘something’ other than magic.
Part of me wanted to disqualify him using the fact that he didn’t use magic as justification.
But for that to happen, a condition had to be set from the beginning that magic had to be used.
‘Besides, the dean approved it.’
Whatever the process, I achieved my goal.
Raising an objection here would only save the dean’s face. So in the end, I had no choice but to swallow my anger and retreat.
So, the first exam is over.
The results were announced soon.
Ulan had 5 points and Dilia had 4 points.
Did you not like the results?
Delia’s eyebrows twitched once. But for a moment, she returned with an expressionless face as if she had never seen it before.
And then the second test began.
“The next step is to hit the target with this spear. “The spear has been given five stacks of weight strengthening magic, and the only way to remove it is to find the magic core and trigger a magic reaction.”
A spear made of steel from the blade to the hilt.
Due to the weight strengthening magic, the weight of the spear has increased tremendously. Just enough for five knights to rush in and move it.
“Most people probably have not thrown a spear much before, so accuracy is not included in the score. “But I’ll just see how fast I can lift the spear and throw it.”

Immediately after finishing the explanation.
Direk looked at Ulan with nervous eyes.
‘If I had followed the original plan, I should have failed in the magic power test, at least in the first test…’
Ulan passed with confidence.
By using something that isn’t even magical.
‘If I had known this would happen, I would have prepared properly to make it difficult to pass the remaining exams.’
The second and third tests of magical power detection were nothing more than a slightly modified version of the special skills test taken last year.
Because I knew Ulan would fall before that.
But it’s already too late to regret. Just as I was struggling to swallow my anxiety, the exam soon began.
“Euppie Davien, 3 minutes 51 seconds.”
“Gervain Colt, 4 minutes 33 seconds!”
The time from lifting the spear to hitting the target was measured and announced. It varies from test taker to test taker, but generally it takes about 4 minutes.
“Dilia Arpen. 1 minute and 15 seconds!”
Delia, a talent who excelled in previous tests, also passed 1 minute in this test.
Finding the magic core and causing a magic reaction was completed in 30 seconds, but the time was wasted due to lack of skill with a spear.
“Ugh, my strength is still weak. That’s why I’ve told you several times to train your strength and stamina in addition to your magic.”
Deflin clicked his tongue.
Still, his expression was bright. Even though it was over 1 minute, I was the fastest among the test takers.
Soon after, Ulan’s turn came.
This time, all eyes are pouring in. Meanwhile, some test takers discovered something strange.
“huh? But isn’t that window a little different?”
“I know. “Bigger than we heard?”
“It seems heavier somehow.”
This is why I don’t like quick-witted guys.
Direc frowned. As they said, of course they did it this time too.
‘We just stacked the weight enhancement eight times and even gave it a special gravity enhancement spell.’
It was a weight that I doubt whether or not even ten knights, not five, could carry it. No matter how powerful Ulan is, that would be impossible.
However, I felt a strange sense of anxiety.
Could it be that it can be easily solved this time? I was worried, but I shook my head vigorously and shook my concerns away.
‘No, that can’t be true. No matter how strong one is, humans have limitations. Unless you’re a giant from legend, it’s impossible to lift that.’
So I was sure this time.
That guy won’t get through easily.
“start!”
The assistant proctor’s shout echoes throughout the exam room.
Ulan walked forward and grabbed the spear.
And I just lifted it.
“······uh?”
Direc muttered blankly.
No, why do you hear that?
I quickly looked to see if the magic had been lifted, but that wasn’t the case. The evidence was the magic circle stuck to the window.
‘Well, that means…’
You just lifted that with force? really?
Just as Direc’s eyes were getting bigger.
Ulan threw his spear.
Quaaaaaaaaa!
The steel spear pierced the target with one strike, making a sound as it tore through the air. As if that wasn’t enough, they even destroyed the outer wall behind it.
Coo! Coo coo coo coo!
The power was so powerful that the entire test site shook somewhat from the momentary shock wave.
“Ooh, Ulaanbaatar. “5 seconds.”
“······.”
The feeling of silence came again.
Each of the test takers whispered to themselves.
“what? “You used magic, right?”
“It just looks like it was done with force…”
“If it’s true, wouldn’t it be even greater?”
Anyway, the test content was met.
And the result.
Ulan scored 5 points this time.
Direc’s face, whose plan was ruined, turned bright red as if he was going to explode, and Delia, who suddenly received a 4 point, twitched her nose.
‘That’s…’
This is the reaction you see when you get very upset.
Perhaps Ulan was angry because they took away points in an absurd way.
But he couldn’t watch it either. If he had taken the test half-heartedly, he didn’t know what kind of trouble Direc would catch.
After earning a total of 10 points.
The final exam has arrived before we know it.
5.
“······The third test is to take the magic core from the magic golem. There are a total of five golems, and the goal is to retrieve as many magic cores as possible without destroying them.”
With a somewhat gaunt appearance.
Direc explained the test contents in a weak voice. This is because most of the plans prepared so far have come to nothing.
“However, as mentioned earlier, this test will be conducted as a group test. Cooperation is also highly valued, so be sure to connect well with your team members.”
But Direc did not give up.
This test too, I tried a trick.
There is an odd number of test takers currently taking the magic power detection test. So, inevitably, one person will not be able to form a group.
‘And then…’
The plan was to assign an assistant supervisor who had been purchased in advance to act as a helper to Ulan. And before he could retrieve the magic core, his goal was to move first and destroy all the magic core.
After checking the plan again.
Direc shook the box he had prepared.
“Then, we will organize the groups by drawing lots. “The order goes in the order of highest horsepower.”
This leaves the Ulan last. The moment a smile bloomed on Direc’s lips.
Good luck! Grumble!
Suddenly the lottery box was engulfed in fire.
“······!?”
A sudden unexpected situation.
Direc was startled and threw the box away.
It was possible to immediately identify the culprit. Because there was only one person who used magic here.
“W-what did you do…”
“sorry. “I changed my mind.”
It was Deflin who burned the box.
He was the dean of the Faculty of Magic. She looked at her test takers with a grin on her face.
“There is a fairer way than this.”
“······equity?”
“yes! Groups are organized according to horsepower reserves. “The person with the highest magical power and the person with the lowest magic power are in the same group, and then groups are created in that order.”
Direc realized this.
She’s trying to put Ulan and Dilia in the same group. I don’t know the reason, but in any case, this was what Deflin was aiming for.
Meanwhile, as soon as she finished speaking.
Some test takers raised objections.
“But that’s a bit…”
“Do you think it’s unfair?”
“huh? why?”
“If you think about it that way, the Ulan and Dilia test takers are in the same group. Aren’t they currently ranked first and second?”
“Hmm, that’s true too.”
She muttered as if she was worried.
But that only lasts for a moment.
“ah! So how about this method? “If the test taker’s group of Ulan and Delia fails to bring all the magic cores, they will be given 1 point.”
With a somewhat absurd remark.
Deflin smiled brightly.
“However, if you bring all the hacks perfectly, I will give you 5 points as well as a special benefit. This is a benefit that may be of great help in your future academy life. “As the ‘Dean’ of the Faculty of Magic, I promise you this.”
“······!”
The last word made my stomach tremble.
Dean of the Faculty of Magic. Deflin certainly said so. When even the supervisor, Direc, did not deny this, the commotion grew even louder.
“how is it? “These are good conditions, right?”
There was no one who objected.
Regardless of whether it was fair or unfair, since it was revealed that she was the Dean of the Faculty of Magic, it was impossible to go against her words.
At that time, Ulan muttered softly.
“Not bad.”
Currently, he has already scored 10 points.
Even if you fail to retrieve the magic core and receive 1 point, you can still receive at least a B grade. Even if that happens, admission is confirmed.
However, if you successfully achieve your goal, you can also receive ‘special benefits’.
In other words, it is a condition where there is nothing to lose.
“Right? “Then do you want to do it like this?”
“I do not care. step······.”
“step?”
“Swear on your name by Mana.”
Ulan’s eyes deepened.
Then Deflin looked bewildered.
“Do you swear? Hey, I’m the dean. Dean of the Faculty of Magic! “I won’t keep my promise…”
“There is a high possibility that it will not be kept.”
Immediately after Difflin interrupted.
Ulan looked intently into her eyes.
“Because your eyes are full of lies.”
“······.”
“I have seen many eyes like yours. “A person with eyes like that cannot be trusted.”
It was scary for him to stop talking.
Deflin’s eyes changed strangely.
The eyes were not as emotionless as usual, but full of interest. She looked at Ulan for a moment and then burst into bright laughter.
“Ahaha! great! I swear to this world and Mana in the name of Deeplin Chernio. I will carry out the promise I just made. Is it okay to do this?”
Ulan nods his head silently.
It meant that I agreed. Delia also accepted Deflin’s proposal without any objection.
As he watched Ulan and Delia end up in the same group, Direc laughed helplessly.
‘Haha, I’m screwed.’
Of course, it is still possible to interfere.
But then Delia would also suffer, which would be the same as incurring Deflin’s wrath.
With the vision of the research funds flying before his eyes, Direc lost consciousness.
6.
After Professor Direk faints.
The test proctor was replaced by Deflin, Dean of the Faculty of Magic. And no test taker had any disagreement with this change.
Ulan and Delia suddenly end up in the same group.
There was only silence between the two.
Delia stood silently cleaning her staff, and Ulan held an ax in both hands.
‘Recapturing the magical core is not difficult.’
All you have to do is cut it from the surface like when hunting a demonic beast. Because the use of tools was allowed in this test.
‘or not······.’
Just like I did in my past life.
You can get help from Delia.
She is a being loved by Mana. Finding the location of the core by reading the flow of magical energy was not a task.
No matter what happens, this exam is an easy success.
Around the time I was thinking that.
Poke!
Someone stabbed me in the waist.
“······I can not see.”
A silver-haired girl frowning.
It was Delia. As she approached, she glanced at her Ulan as if she were looking at a strange creature, then pointed behind her.
“I have to leave. “From behind, take a look.”
When I heard this, I started laughing without even realizing it.
Because it was almost similar to what I heard when I first met her. At that time, as soon as Delia saw her Ulan, she immediately said:
“Are you by any chance a giant?”
Just like now.
Looking up and down with a tired expression.
And after learning that Ulan was a barbarian warrior, he spoke with an expressionless face.
“Don’t hold back for no reason, stay back.”
At the time, I thought he was being ignored.
But I realized it while we were together.
Delia is just not good at expressing herself. She just doesn’t want to see her teammate get hurt right in front of her eyes.
Is it because I’m intoxicated with nostalgia?
Ulan gave the answer he had given to Delia’s greeting at the time, without leaving out a word.
“refuse.”
“what?”
“I don’t listen to what the wizard Naboorang says.”
“What a sound…”
“No matter what you say, I fight ahead of you. “Because that’s what a warrior does.”
A grinning Ulan took the lead.
Delia frowns.
However, I couldn’t say anything else. This was because preparation for the exam was almost complete.
The first turn is Ulan and Dilia.
While all the test takers are watching from various perspectives. The assistant proctor’s shout rang loudly throughout the testing room.
“Test begins!”
At that moment, the magic golem stood up.
Eyes shining bright blue. Just as Delia grabbed her wand and was about to recite her magic spell.
Ulan took action first.
Hung! Whoa!
Ulan suddenly picked up the ax and threw it away.
The ax, which was flying around and around, instantly cut the golem between the eyes.
“······ah?”
Delia muttered blankly.
The golem was split in half.
